Thanks love and congrats to you too!!!!!

Hi!!!! Thanks for your response!!!! Yes, it is great and after I wrote this....I decided take a picture of myself and compare it to the pictures I took day one and wow!!!!! What I noticed the most was that my butt was lifted and definitely more shapely!!!! And yes I do try to make the smaller goals....I document…

hi!!!! I just requested you!!!!! I been on here almost a year....had a few stops and starts but have been going strong for about 30 days or so and I lost about 9lbs and 7inches already!!!! I have a young son, and I just prefer to work at home. I just completed one month of Hip Hop Abs and tomorrow starts day 1 of Level…

I'm the fatty of the bunch lol but oh well here goes!!!!! Age: 34 Height: 5'7" SW: 246.4 CW: 237.4 GW: 175 Bust: 43" Waist (measured one inch above belly button): 37" Hips: 50.75" Definitely a pear!!!! I have a lot of junk in my trunk lol

Wow!!!! I don't see where you would need to lost 70 more pounds lol at your height...wouldn't that be considered underweight? That is average weight for me and I am 5'7"!!!! At any rate, congratulations!!!! Seeing people like you who have come so far is definitely an inspiration!!!!

When I first started out....I saw a need for a cheat day...I mean a day where I just went absolutely BANANAS (Saturdays)!!!! If I wanted fast food, I would eat it. Chocolate I would eat it. Fried foods, alcohol, you name it!!!! And then like someone else on here said....I logged it in....saw that what I ate that day…

congratulations!!!!!

I just read it and yes it is very inspiring.,...I just finished my first month so I am at State 2 where the weight loss is getting slower....I lost almost 5lbs the first week, 1.6 the second, 1.4 the third and it is looking like this week I may have lost a little under a pound....and this is the point where I always…

There are different bone structures....that's why "average" height/weight charts span 30lbs....I am 5'7"....I think the average weight is between 134 and 165.....however, I haven't seen 134 since I was a child, and when I was about 160 I was pretty thin and healthy looking....I think if I went down to 130 I would look…

I agree. I don't like the name. Googled it and saw some of the swimsuits.....and they are not the traditional string bikinis....they are two piece suits...no one's stomach was hanging out, and they had fashionable overdresses, etc. The name unsettles me. But I don't think it's promoting obeseity....not everyone can be a…

What works for me is that I set my goal toward the high end....I didn't try to be so aggressive as to want to lose two pounds a week....so aiming for a slower weight loss put me at a calorie amount that I can fit a few slices of pizza, donut, chicken wings, etc. Not everyday, but I try not to deprive myself. if I really…

You guys are making me hungry lol I am not a big breakfast eater and struggled with finding stuff to eat and stuff I actually want to cook. So I started nutrient extracting....I bought a nutribullet and mix 2 cups of green leafy veggies, up to 2 cups of any fruit, top it off with a booster (chia seeds, flax seeds, raw…

I don't eat back the calories all the time. If I incorporate all my fruits, veggies, carbs, protein, etc. and it only amounts to 1400 calories or so and I am satiated and not hungry, then I am not going to force feed myself for the sake of eating more. If I do create a calorie deficit, and I am hungry, I will eat. It's not…

Pretty much what everybody else said!!!! Do you exercise? That has helped me to sleep better at night so I don't wake up to eat.

Not sure if my diary is made public, but I am guilty of perusing my friend's diaries, if not for some motivation or food/recipe ideas!!!! And I do notice when some friends of friends do cheer them on sometimes when they do make unhealthy choices lol it is what it is.

Try switching up your exercise and eat more varieties of foods....and yes I am going to be looking into a food scale myself!!!! A heart rate monitor is already on my to do list. I realize my weight is going to drop because I am at the beginning of my journey, but I understand that when you are close to your goal...you…

lol I weigh myself a few times a day!!! I know people told me to get rid of the scale but I just can't help myself!!!! My weight fluctuates so much in minutes....one morning I can weigh myself anf it says one thing....then there is a 3lb difference a few hours later....then my weight tends to fluctuate after I work…

hi!!!! I realize you wrote this awhile ago, and I hope all is well with you!!!! I too, have problems with binge eating. I would eat and eat and eat and feel so guilty and disgusted with myself. I normally would start an exercise program, log into MFP, record what I ate, and then would just get up and binge all night!!! And…

Love hearing stories. Although I don't know what a stone is equivalent to in weight (I'm from America) I see the difference in your pictures. This helps me to stay motivated. I been going strong for about 6 weeks this time. I hope and pray to continue further improving myself!!! Good job to you!!!!
